Face masks: they’re not that bad. Okay, the disposable ones are pretty horrible (especially when they actually get disposed of and end up in the sea, which they’ve been doing in their droves). But reusable, washable face masks – like these new arrivals from snow specialists Barts – are a very different proposition. They’re just as effective, meet govt. requirements, and are so much more pleasant to wear you’ll forget you’re wearing one. Just make sure you wash it regularly – between once a day and once a week, depending on use – and immediately after high-risk situations. | | |
